I wrote a book! Will to Wild! Adventures Great and Small to Change Your Life

Will to wild

Hey everyone, I finally got off my board and wrote a book! It was a wild ride, one that was as big of an adventure as the adventures I’ve written about inside. Will to Wild is the book I wish I had when I was scared to quit my job, start a podcast with zero technical recording skills, and move to New Zealand with a guy I'd been dating for only a few months (Johnny is still around). It's the result of years of interviews with hundreds of adventurers, including famous climbers like Alex Honnold, twins who paddled on paddleboards from Alaska to Mexico, and even a grandma who started surfing again at age 85.

Adventures Great and Small to Change Your Life

Inside are lessons from a range of adventurers on how to make your wildest ideas a reality, tips on what to do when things go wrong (which, trust me, happens on almost every adventure), and how to deal with fear and self-doubt. I also share my own personal stories, including a few triumphs and serious face-plants. I even managed to sneak in a good old-fashioned wiener joke!

Am I nervous for it all to come out? Heck yes! But I am excited to hopefully connect with more of you in person or virtually soon.

Pre-Order Will to Wild

Pre-ordering is important for authors, and I'd be thrilled if you purchased an early copy of Will to Wild. It makes for a great graduation or summer gift, too! You'll receive the book as soon as it's released. And if you are able to share it with friends or post this link on social, it would be greatly appreciated.

Let’s celebrate Together

Thank you again for your support! I'm excited to hear your thoughts on the book and cover. Stay tuned for more updates on events, parties, and other ways to celebrate this summer! And please let me know if you want to come to any book parties in LA or San Diego so I can make sure to put you on the list. You can check out all of my upcoming events here, and I will also be updating them on Instagram.
